Subject: Enjoyable Made for TV Actioner
This is a made for TV action movie Starring, Written and Directed by actor George Montgomery who is better known for his self produced war pictures.

The plot is fairly simple and yes, the film sags a bit while Cutter is in South Africa but it picks up well and that's more than I can say for many other Made for TV movies in the PD. Give it a shot or try fast forwarding past the 30 minutes or so of trapping in South Africa

Subject: Just, yuck.
Pretty nasty film making (and not in a good way).
